Implementation

MEP is implemented via a proprietary Probing Protocol (PP) that sends special UDP RDP packets to port 259 to discover whether an IP is reachable. This protocol is proprietary to Check Point and does not conform to RDP as specified in RFC 908/1151.

Note – These UDP RDP packets are not encrypted, and only test the availability of a peer.
